Thanks - gonna go for the new Axiom+ 9 this winter - so I can install autopilot next season.

 

👍 Once you put the autopilot in you will want to network another screen at the stern. Then you can watch the sonar/navigate & steer without going to the helm!

Rookie, do you have a pic of your setup at the stern? On second thought maybe I shouldn’t even tempt myself haha

Actually apparently my boat does not have hydraulic steering - cost to upgrade + autopilot etc - not worth it. Gonna go for the Element instead - now if money was no object the $1600 axiom would obviously be the choice over the $999 Element.

If you have cable steer you may want to look at Lowrance as they have an Autopilot unit for cable steer.

If you zoom in you will see I have AP, Nav & sonar all up on the screen.

Not the best photo of it but you get the idea.

Leave in place. Put the hard cover shield on & then I have a canvas cover that covers the head unit & the FH
